Broke down a few of the storylines I'll be keeping an eye on in the second half of the #delhs football season.

As a neutral observer, it's exciting to see several teams in the mix at all three levels.

For the first few weeks of the season, I’ve been interested in what seemed to be big growth in kicking at the high school level.

Spoke with Matteo Bracalenti and Ian Cleghorn about how they got started and what they’ve done to improve. #delhs

Shane Ervin broke his elbow in the final game of his freshman season.

Then, playing 7-on-7 as part of his comeback the following spring, he heard a crack as he came out of the backfield.

On Ervin's persistence and return to action. #delhs

I'd expect a lot of movement in the next version of the boys soccer player rankings.

Last year's All-State teams were filled with seniors, and we're already starting to hear about players who could emerge.

I wrote about Layton von Brandt, the Appo tackle committed to Penn State.

We talked about what it's like to be a highly recruited prospect in the new world of college football, career goals in football and his upcoming junior year with the Jaguars.
